I have a $4/month VPS that comes with a static IP address. Any reason you shouldn't use that as a proxy to solve the dynamic IP problem?

I've done it for a couple of years, all traffic comes into the VPS and Wireguard immediately redirects to my home machine VM. I can take the VM down, bring it up on another machine, it calls to my VPS to the Wireguard server, establishes the tunnel and then my email and web are now going to the VM on the new home machine, or whereever in the world I want to bring that VM up. Yet, to any clients hitting my public IP (the cloud VPS), nothing has changed except for a few minutes downtime.

These IPs are often used by spammers before you get them and have bad reputations, but that's usually a solvable problem.

But if you own the IP for 6 months with no abuse, wouldn’t that solve the problem?

Some providers block or score hit IPs from popular provider blocks due to the amount of spam that comes from them.

Nope, that would totally work.
